- Perched on an elevated site on the ever-popular Whin Road, “Aghnadore”, 23 Whin Road, Ballygally, is a home of both character and captivating coastal beauty. Built in 1958 and thoughtfully designed by its original owner, this charming detached residence enjoys breathtaking, uninterrupted sea views across Ballygally Bay and towards the wider North Coast, with ever-changing seascapes that can be appreciated in all seasons.
The setting is truly special. Ballygally is a picturesque seaside village, ideally positioned as the gateway to the Glens of Antrim and the renowned Antrim Coast Road. The property is within comfortable walking distance of the beach via a convenient shortcut path, as well as local amenities, while offering excellent connectivity for commuters travelling to Belfast.
“Aghnadore” — meaning “field of bushes” — sits on beautifully landscaped, gently sloping gardens, carefully chosen by its original owner for their unique 360-degree outlook. The home has been positioned to maximise these views, from the coastline and passing ships to the surrounding hills, with even Knockdhu perfectly framed from an upstairs window. On clear days, distant Scottish landmarks such as the Mull of Kintyre, Ailsa Craig and the Paps of Jura can be glimpsed, while dolphins are now a regular sight in the bay.
Internally, the property offers generous and well-proportioned accommodation, including four bedrooms, three reception rooms, and both upstairs and downstairs bathroom facilities. The home is filled with natural light, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere throughout. While it would benefit from modernisation, it has been lovingly maintained and retains many original features, including oak flooring and brass ironmongery, reflecting the craftsmanship and vision of its original owner, who personally built elements such as the staircase and fitted furniture.
The gardens are a particular highlight, rich with history and potential. Mature planting includes long-established rose beds, while previous cultivation saw a variety of fruit and herbs flourish. Additional features such as a summer house, workshop, and substantial outbuildings further enhance the appeal for families or those seeking outdoor space and versatility.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a home that combines scenic beauty, thoughtful design, and a strong sense of heritage. With its exceptional location, generous accommodation, and stunning views, “Aghnadore” offers the perfect canvas for a new owner to create a truly special family home by the sea. - PORCH 1.80m x 2.16m (5'11 x 7'1)
